little bitty bird revisited...

It's September! In my humble opinion, this is one of the most glorious months ever! Here in the desert, September means perfectly cool temps, the slight change of colors, and the most golden glow in the evening hours...love it. Oh, and our little miracle girl came into our lives 13 years ago on a beautiful September day. Sniff....the most amazing day of our lives.

The Papertrey Ink Sr. Design Team members are revisiting the Little Bitty Bird stamp set with coordinating dies. It has always been one of my favorites as I love the rustic, whimsical feel to it. On my first card, I used the loopy border to create fun edges around my card front, followed by an embossed tree that I then added water and my Zig watercolor markers to.

My bitty birds have just a tiny bit of watercolor added to them as well. Aren't those little birds irresistible? The darling music notes can be found in the Little Bitty Bird Additions stamp set.

My next card uses the branch image from Little Bitty Bird, along with more tiny birds of course, and a sentiment from this set that I love so much. My mantra :). "Live Simply, Love Much."

I used watercolor cardstock, white embossing powder, and the Think Big Favorites #17 mini stamp set to form my focal point, and then embellished with the sweet images found in Little Bitty Bird.

It's one stamp set that's entirely cute and quite endearing...grab you a one!

As Lisa said, "LOVELY as usual!" And I was wondering the same thing. What size are your cards? Are they just narrower than an A2 so they fit into an A2 envelope? Or are they taller too? Have a BLESSED, Joy-filled day and THANK YOU for being so sweet. I can almost hear your voice in your text.

Such a sweet card! I agree with you about our beautiful Septembers here in the desert. I thought maybe I was a little crazy about seeing the gold in our mornings and evenings! It really is the most wonderful time of the year. Happy 13 years with your beautiful girl. Hugs.
